Finally picked up my very first Battery Tender, i was planning on grabbing a couple of them but they only had one of the normal kind in stock

Could very well be an indication. Once upon a time Wright supplied Matco with hand tools so it wouldn't be a complete shock if they opened up a production contract with them again.


In the market for some really thin wrenches for certain applications and im a sucker for ratcheting wrenches.

have a link to these?

Beta 52s are the thinnest open-end wrenches i know of that aren't specific low torque type.

The Gedore 7 series are the thinnest you'll find for the most part. 4mm across for 10-14, 5mm for 15-17. The 52s look to spec out about a half millimeter thicker.

These are a little out of the norm on this thread, but here are some great bike tools from Abbey Tools in Bend, OR. They just arrived today. After looking at these I can't believe the **** tools we accepted from our suppliers when I was a shop mechanic.

Lots of bike parts are aluminum, carbon and titanium, so using good quality tools is really important if you don't want to damage what you're working on.

I don't have a problem with the quality of Park or Pedro's tools, but I will look up this company, that is a cool bottom bracket tool!

I see that is not a bb tool, but a crombie. I have a Park one, did not know it had a fancy name.

Picked these up the other day at Menards. Crecent Brand 1 3/8 -2'' . They replaced the cheap $50 china brand that kept giving me chrome slivers from all the chrome flaking off the wrench.

you wont regret the purchase, best wire crimper i ever bought

Outside the US, imperial sizes barely exists.

That said, i have the metric set and i think i've only ever used one or two of them.

Outside the US angle wrenches barely exist...although Nepros has a set I spotted . Then I hit myself in the hand with a hammer and said NO.NO.NO.
I'll just suffer the Snaps and Protos

TLLF72. They're about 10 3/4" @ $120 or so right now. I missed one the other night.Went for $85 I believe.
They'll normalize in a few months. Nothing to hyperventilate over.

I'm waiting out the MAC 90 flex in 1/4"
Talked to Proto and they have no plans for a 90 tooth pure. Those stay in their Mac lineup.

What's the application for a super long handle 1/4" drive ratchet.

It's for changing the clutch drum on a 1987 Club Cadette gas powered golf cart..

Access boy. You need options.

 

[90zcar]

I'm not a fan of those super long handle 1/4 ratchets. I had one of the green hard handle snap on flex ratchets and I barely used it. Sometimes it felt as if I was going to break it. I never did but it just never felt normal in my hands using something that long that was that small.
But I also think the thick plastic handle played a role in me not liking it aswell.....but I'm sure the opposite pencil thin long handle wouldn't change my mind either.

Klein Tools RT500 Receptacle Tester (made in the USA) $12

I can't believe you got that for $12 what a great deal, I have one too and I have to say it's the best, solid prongs. It's in my toolbox tour video.

$12.20 on Amazon + $4.99 shipping. so $17.19.

I wanted the RT600 version which also tests GFCI receptacle, but apparently that's been discontinued by Klein for some unknown reason.

Who are you to criticize another man for the size of his tool?

Can we criticize those who have the same hammer in every color possible?

 

[Strouty]

Maybe

[firworks]

Grabbed these US made Kobalt screwdrivers from Lowe's. They were on clearance for like a $ off a piece so not a huge deal but when I picked them up I was surprised so I grabbed a couple.

They are actually pretty comfortable and solid feeling. Remind me of the black Snap-on hard handles.

 

[90zcar]

Oh wowww!!! Striking cap on those?!!! I may have to get me one or two slotted ones for my chisel n prying needs

This showed up today. Used, but for the money I'm not going to complain. Works great and having the recoil absorbed by the tool is pretty nice. Seems to hit hard. Atlas rivet hammer/gun.
